 watching Beyond Grenade today and today I'm going to do a deep conditioning treatment but this will not be your average deep conditioning treatment. We're going to take it to the next level by adding a little bit of heat. Now I know you're thinking, you have a no heat challenge, what do you mean you're adding heat? It's not that kind of heat, okay? This type of heat is actually going to be beneficial to our hair. So don't go grab that straightener, I will come for you. Now it is very common to be adding heat during a deep conditioning treatment to have that extra penetration of the product into your hair. So some girls use a heated dryer, some use heated towels and wrap their head, but today I'm trying a very convenient product called Hot Head. I'm sure you guys have seen these heated caps before, a lot of other curly vloggers have used them and I personally tried it because one of you, my subscribers wrote me and asked me to do a review on this. So thank you for recommending this product and I'm excited to try it. So as you can see it's called Hot Head, it's their thermal hair care and oh it's editor's choice by NaturallyCurly.com. So let me open this for the very first time, this is going to be a first time first impressions review for you guys. Oh it's heavy, oh snaps. So after doing some research I learned that there's actually flax seeds in here. So inside this cap, oh it smells like tea. You see it has these little packs right here, they're like little packs of like those hacky sacks like bean bags and the flax seeds are what actually get heated up that keep the hat hot while it's on your head. The one that I got has their cheetah print, this is their chic style so I thought I'd take it back to my scary spice, spice girls cheetahlicious obsession phase, yes I was obsessed with cheetah print. Cheetah print was my first obsession before pineapples, just FYI that's how serious it was. And then on the inside it's black and this is just a terry cloth material. Now before I tell you anymore about this cap let me heat it up and actually put it on so we can start deep conditioning. So I will be using the blueberry blitz reparative hair mask, I just did a full review on this if you guys want to check it out, but I loved it so much I love the smell I want to use it again so here we are. So I'm going to apply this to my hair and then we're going to put on the cap. Really dry ends, this is the great time to moisturize those ends, wherever you have very dry hair if it's at the bottom or at the top this is when you want to attack. So now that I have my hair drenched in the mask I'm going to put on my clear shower cap, cover up your entire head and this will protect your actual cap from getting dirty and sticky and all that stuff. So now all you got to do is throw this baby in the microwave. So when you first heat it up you want the design pattern to be visible on the outside and then we're going to heat it up for 45 seconds. After the first round of 45 seconds we're going to take it out and actually flip it inside out to make sure that the entire hot head is getting heated. So now the terry cloth is on the outside and we're going to heat it up for another 45 seconds. Then as that goes round and round we take it out one last time, flip it inside out again so that we see the pattern once more and then we're going to do one more set of 45 seconds. Alright it is fresh out the microwave and guess what, it is hot. Now I've seen on other videos this will be worn both ways and the actual printed side is actually a little bit hotter so I'm going to put that side over even though it might be cuter the other way, oh yeah nice and warm. Now this will not be the last time I'll be using this, this will probably be used in my deep conditioning treatments from now on so I will try it, flip the other way and I'll let you guys know if I see a difference but this is how I'm going to be wearing it today. Alright so now we're going to let this sit for about 20 to 30 minutes and first off I can say that I'm already loving this. I love how warm it is so it feels like a little jacuzzi for my head like it's actually very relaxing so when I do my mask I personally do a hair mask and I usually even do a face mask so together like it's just going to be a little spa treatment. So now let me tell you why it's good to use heat during your deep conditioning treatments because it actually will open up the hair shaft. Now this type of heat is good, do not put a straightener through your hair and then deep condition and think you're doing something right, no that is burning your hair, this is just simply opening up the hair shaft. So now whatever deep conditioning treatment that you use, all those natural healthy ingredients can really get into your hair. Now some people actually have hooded dryers, when I first saw a girl use a hooded dryer for a deep conditioning treatment on YouTube I was like in your house like nobody just has a hooded dryer in their kitchen and then I kept watching more videos and a lot of girls did and I was like oh really? But if you do have a hooded dryer that means you actually have to one have that huge thing that takes up all the space or maybe you have one that sits on your countertop but then you are a confine to one spy and you only could do so much. I'm someone that has a lot to do at all times and I like to multitask that's why I do a hair mask and a face mask probably while I edit or I do this like I actually need to move around you can clean the house you could do some squats whatever you need to do you are not confined to one space there's no plugs but I'm still getting the heat that I need for my deep conditioning treatment. Now I definitely recommend this for people like me that have low porosity hair. If you're not sure what type of porosity you have I have a full video explaining high and low porosity hair but in brief if you have low porosity hair that means that your cuticles are very tightly closed shut so it's hard for products to actually get in there because they're just so sealed so by adding heat you are going to open up those hair shafts so all the product can get inside. This is what you have this is what we want. Now a hooded dryer can cost you a hundred plus dollars I don't even know how much those legit salon ones are that I've seen in some girls videos but this cost 30 bucks and this will actually last you a very very long time. Now if you do want your own heated cap you can get this from thermalhaircare.com I got the Cheetah print one but they have a bunch of different types of looks and patterns that you could choose from and this one is $29.95 now if you think about it it is a great investment because it's something that will last you for years it's not getting dirty we're not putting any product on it's just literally being used for heat and then we put it away again so I personally deep condition every single week and that is how I've gotten my hair to grow it's how I keep it moisturized deep conditioning is so important so I really hope you're doing it and if you want to buy one for yourself I do have a promo code I'll put that here and in the description box below so make sure you use that to save you some money. So I'm gonna continue to let this sit for at least 20 minutes and I will be back to show you the results. Alright it has been 30 minutes so now it's time to take off our cap it's definitely doing a better job at keeping in heat than just a normal plastic cap like I usually would so let's take this off oh oh the breeze so I'm gonna rinse this out and I will be back and we'll see how it feels. Alright so if I zoom in you see my curls are nicely defined I'm excited to see how this will do with my hair over time but so far so that is how to use the thermal haircare hothead and I'm so excited to now use this every time my deep condition so get ready you will see me rocking this little heated cap pretty much all the time in my snapchat if you don't follow me on snapchat that's where I show you all my behind-the-scenes of my daily life so make sure you follow me at Ms. Beyond Grenet on snapchat Instagram and Twitter and I will be back with updates to show you how the hothead actually helps my hair over time before you go ask that you get this video a thumbs up and subscribe I post new videos every Sunday so I hope to see you all next week thanks for watching Beyond Grenet today
